Myself and my friend had a great tour of Academia. It was concentrated on the history of Michelangelo given it was only an hour duration but we enjoyed that and understanding this amazing artist in more detail and centring around the build of David. I recall it was Vera who was our guide in English. She was very good and could be clearly understood. Still left us the opportunity to explore the valley further after the tour.

We didn't realize we were going to tour with two separate companies/groups. We were late getting to our second tour, still received our tickets (finally) and were just told to "go". No further direction than that. Totally turned off by the attitude and lack of assistance.

A visit to the Uffizi Gallery was a unique experience. Definitely reductive to experience it in just one day. In any case, with the right guide everything can be appreciated in the best way. Specifically, our guide Roberta, with her immense culture, experience and professionalism, turned out to be invaluable, making us experience an unforgettable day.

It was a bit of a mix up. Someone came late and they did not have a ticket for her so we had to stand in a line and wait 10 minutes for the tour arranges to bring another ticket. Then we did a toilet stop and waited 10 minutes for people to go there. It was frustrating as surely you go to the loo before hand and if your late you miss the tour. This left us stuck in crowds as the guides all talk about the same specific painting so everyone huddles in there areas although the rest of the gallery is quite acceptable. So floor 2 is crowded floor 1 is easy to walk around. The guide had lots of knowledge but I wanted to speak about the paintings but it was about the medchi family and where they lived etc and who was related to who. This was too much and detracted from us even standing in front of a painting. It was expensive so I would have expected a smaller group with less hearding. The overall was good but could have been better.

Everything well organized. A little slow explaining the initial part of the Uffizi but then fascinating the area where the Botticelli and Michelangelo are displayed. In the tour you do not visit the Caravaggio part but you can go on your own without a guide

One cannot miss visiting the Uffizi galleries and L' Accademia. The guides were both good. The problem is that the museums allow too many people in at the same time. The number and size of the tours at times gets unbearable. Compared to the organization of the visit to Leonardo's Last Supper for example (much better. More restricted, but much more pleasant), in Uffizi it is very difficult to enjoy the incredible masterpieces without being literally pushed by and even hit with the backpacks (which shouldn't be allowed) of the hordes of tourists

Well organised and so easy to meet up with our guide who the cut the queue and got us into the gallery very quickly. Our guide was very knowledgeable art historian with a passion for the subject that was very engaging. We were shown all the key paintings in 2.5 hours and learned so much . We would have been lost wandering around for hours if we did it ourselves and we would not have seen 1/2 the key works.

Kiara, our guide was simply fantastic! Not only was she very knowledgeable about Florentine art history, the Medici Family, and the gallery, but she also contextualized the art pieces and the artists in the larger context of florentine and Italian history. We did not feel rushed at any point and she was also very patient with our questions. I highly recommend the tour and Kiara as the guide!

The guide was excellent and pationate about the visit. Very nice person and knowledgeable.excellent story teller. But the group was not a small group as I expected . We were 16 ! The waiting time at the uffizi was longer than foreseen the rooms packed. I was expecting a smaller group that would not rush . But in view of the chaos around the uffizi the entire experience was a miracle .

The guided tour was great but working out the ticket verification was very complicated. The confirmation email said the tickets were confirmed & we were ready to go. However the next line in the email said we had to go to the office, which was out if our way across town & when we got there the notice on the doir directed us to the ticket office in the piazza Della republica. Your messaging needs to be more exact about where people need to go - several people on our tour made the same comment!

All beautiful, I had already visited it years ago but every time I come it's like the first time. I would never get tired of looking at the masterpieces in the gallery and also the scenery outside. Only advice I can give is upping the wifi reception which works well on the second floor but not on the first, more so because having the audio guide we could not use it on the second floor. Otherwise beautiful experience.

This was our 3rd visit to Uffizi and our best. We went in the earliest time slot so it wasn't too busy. Also we loved the terrace on the 3rd floor and enjoyed cappuccinos with the lovely setting and view. I would not waste $$ on headphones - very limited and not too informative. Instead ask chatGPT to prepare an itinerary for you based on how long you plan to visit. Ciao!

Everything about the tour was excellent. Things went very smoothly, and our guides were terrific -- knowledgeable, friendly, and in the case of our guide for the Academia, funny and very engaging. Our issues were beyond anyone's control, namely that Firenze in general and the Uffizi and Acadamia in particular, were in the throes of a tourism apocalypse. It was one of my most unpleasant experiences in a half century of traveling. The guided system helped a lot, easing our entry experiences and getting us to some of the most important works of art to see. Thank you for that. But for me, at least, these positives barely turned a nightmare into a very bad dream.

This was our 3rd visit to Uffizi and our best. We went in the earliest time slot so it wasn't too busy. Also we loved the terrace on the 3rd floor and enjoyed cappuccinos with the lovely setting and view. I would not waste $$ on headphones - very limited and not too informative. Instead ask chatGPT to prepare an itinerary for you based on how long you plan to visit. Ciao!

Myself and my friend had a great tour of Academia. It was concentrated on the history of Michelangelo given it was only an hour duration but we enjoyed that and understanding this amazing artist in more detail and centring around the build of David. I recall it was Vera who was our guide in English. She was very good and could be clearly understood. Still left us the opportunity to explore the valley further after the tour.

There was an unexpected change and my tour time was moved up, i was frustrated and the staff gave me a great plan so that i can see as much of the attractions as possible for the few hours i was staying in Florence. Our guide was such a great one. Her English (American accent) was very easy to understand, she was energetic and engaging. She talked for 90 minutes straight and i listened very carefully for 90 minutes straight. I couldn't stop listening. The information i got, mix of religion, history, economy and art was outstanding. Analyzing the art was exactly to my taste. Definitely recommend!

This review is for Martha our guide and the Academia. Wonderful experience. Our experience at the Ufizzi was not good. The guide's English was not good, her voice was hardly heard, her microphone had a lot of interference, we decided to leave the tour before it ended.

Making the most of your tour

Stay with your group: The Uffizi’s collection is massive—your guide ensures you don’t miss key masterpieces.
Ask questions: Engage with your guide for deeper insights into the art and its history.
Explore on your own afterward: Once the guided portion ends, revisit sections of interest at your own pace.
Stop by the museum shop: A great place to find art books, exclusive souvenirs, and high-quality replicas.

What happens if I’m late?

If you arrive a few minutes late, your guide may still be able to accommodate you, but it's important to arrive at least 15 minutes early to check in. For skip-the-line group tours, late arrivals may forfeit their spot since the group cannot wait. If you're taking a private tour, your guide might be able to adjust the itinerary slightly.

Is the tour suitable for kids?

Yes! A guided tour can be a great way to introduce kids to art and history in an engaging way.
However, standard tours may not be ideal for very young children due to the duration (typically 1.5 to 3 hours) and the structured format. If traveling with younger kids, consider tours of a shorter duration, or private tours, where the guide can adjust the pace.

Why is a guided tour more expensive than a regular ticket?

A guided tour offers more than just entry—it provides an enhanced experience with an expert who brings the artworks to life. The price reflects:
- Skip-the-line access, saving you hours of waiting.
- A licensed guide with specialized knowledge, often in art history or Renaissance studies.
- Curated itineraries that ensure you see the most important masterpieces without feeling lost or overwhelmed.
- Smaller groups or private settings, making the experience more personal and interactive.

A regular ticket only grants entry, while a guided tour ensures you fully understand and appreciate what you're seeing.

What are the qualifications of my guide?

All Uffizi guides are licensed professionals, often with backgrounds in art history, archaeology, or museum studies. Many are local experts fluent in multiple languages, ensuring a deep understanding of Florence’s artistic and historical significance.

Can I access special areas like the Vasari Corridor?

The Vasari Corridor is not included in standard Uffizi guided tours, but special access tours allow visitors to explore it. The corridor has recently reopened after restoration, and access requires a separate ticket or a private tour.

Do I have to be fluent in Italian to take the guided tour?

No, Uffizi guided tours are available in multiple languages, including English, Spanish, French, German, and Italian. When booking, choose your preferred language to ensure the best experience. If you're taking an audio-guided or self-guided tour, make sure the tour provider offers your language option before purchasing.

Can I explore on my own after the tour?

Yes! Once the guided tour ends, you are free to stay inside the Uffizi Gallery and continue exploring at your own pace. The guide will typically end the tour near a key section so you can revisit areas of interest. This is a great opportunity to see sections not covered during the tour, spend more time with specific artworks and also visit the Uffizi Café and shop before leaving.
Just remember that re-entry is not allowed—once you exit the gallery, you cannot return with the same ticket.

How in-depth does the tour go into the art history of the pieces?

It depends on the type of tour you choose: - Standard guided tours provide an overview of major artworks, focusing on historical context, key artists, and must-see pieces. - VIP or small-group tours allow for a more detailed discussion, including artistic techniques and lesser-known works. If you’re an art lover, the guide can go deeper into symbolism, Renaissance techniques, and specific artistic movements. Guides tend to tailor their explanations based on the group—they won’t overwhelm beginners but can dive deeper if asked.

How much walking is involved?

Expect to walk at least 1.5 to 2 kilometers (1 mile) during a standard Uffizi tour. The museum is expansive, with over 100 rooms across multiple floors. While there are elevators and seating areas, the tour involves standing for extended periods.

Can I ask questions about specific artists or artworks during the tour?

Yes! One of the biggest benefits of a guided tour is that it’s interactive—guides encourage questions and discussions. Small group/ private tours offer the most flexibility—you can focus on your favorite artists, techniques, or themes.

Will the tour be too detailed for someone without an art background?

Not at all! Guided tours are designed for all levels of interest—you don’t need an art degree to enjoy them. Your guide will simplify complex concepts so they’re engaging and easy to understand.
